Wrightwood Mountains - March 2013 {Family Trip}

My family got to go up to Wrightwood for a couple nights and while we were there the kids were able to play in the snow. We had been planning to go to the snow at the end of February so we got them their own sleds for Christmas (I am a fan of useful presents). The long awaited trip to the snow was finally here and then it was a hot week! So we prayed there would be some snow.
We found a nice little area that was great until we were told that it was private property and we couldn't sled there. :/ It was fun while it lasted!

I love how you can just see the joy on their faces as they experienced sledding for the first time. :)

 My dad said that's Catalina in the distance to the right.

 I had Robert pull over so I could take some pictures.

So pretty! It was a perfect do and this mountain didn't even look real.

 We found some snow!

The cups make me laugh. haha

 Domenic was catching air!

 Haha Nathan's hair

 Go Nancy!

I'm ok!

 David watch out for the coffee!!!

Look at those sledding skills. Avoiding the coffee cup while holding a toddler. I'm quite impressed!

 heehee

Here comes Robert!

Nathan pulling back...

 Nice follow through Nathan! 

Haha Obie's marshmallow pants. ;)

 Back in the car having a snack while the adults figure out where there was more snow to play in (this was after we were told to leave where we were).

:)

  We didn't find more snow that wasn't all muddy or super crowded so we went back to the cabin and all of us went for a walk to a playground while Robert and David BBQ'd.

 awwww brothers!

 "hi auntie!"

 Blake's a natural swinger. He was totally pumping!

 TONS of squirrels

 This was the next day. We looked for a good place to play in the snow again but it didn't work out. It was windy and actually quite a bit chillier then the day before.

 I really like this picture! It almost looks like a b&w.

This was closer to home and through my window.
